The power of storytelling

Stories are powerful. They stay in our memory shaping our imagination and our identity. And when we share them, stories become something that we “are” and that connect us. Listening, telling and retelling stories make us feel we belong to a community and help us navigate the uncertainties of everyday life.

News stories, in particular, impact our understanding of the world and the actions that we take in response of current events. What are the news stories that you read or watched that impacted you the most? I invite you to add an example and explain.
